3 yards=9 feet
Perimeter= length * width
4 feet*9 feet= 36 feet

For this question you will need to do conversions.

Remember that 1 yard = 36in so
[tex]3 \times 36 = 108[/tex]

And for ever 1 foot, there is 12in (look on a measuring tape if you have one). So for this you do
[tex]12 \times 4 = 48[/tex]

Now add the perimeter:

[tex] P=2(l+w)[/tex]
[tex] 2(108+48) [/tex]
[tex] 2(156) = 312[/tex]

So the perimeter of this rectangle is 312in.

Hope this helps!
